Maserati celebrates centenary in style at Goodwood Revival
Maserati continued its year-long centenary celebrations in vintage style at the Goodwood Revival.
As well as marking the Italian car maker’s 100th anniversary, Maserati also honoured 60 years of Formula One legend the Maserati 250F.
The iconic Maserati 250F took centre stage in the paddock in a recreation of the 1954 pit lane from the famous Italian race circuit, Monza. Sixteen examples of the legendary race car took part in the event. On Sunday, ten of these racing cars took part in the Richmond Trophy – a 15 minute race for front-engined 2.5 litre Grand Prix cars.
On display in the ‘Monza’ pits as well as racing on track was the single-seater Maserati Tipo 420 M 58 ‘Eldorado’, raced by Sir Stirling Moss in the 1958 Monza 500, and on loan from the Panini Museum Collection in Italy.
At the art deco Earls Court Exhibition Centre, reminiscent of the London Motor Shows of the 1950s and 1960s, the firm displayed a 1961 3500 GT Vignale Spyder and a 1969 Ghibli Tipo AM115.
